Experimental study of non-linear effects in a typical shear lap joint configuration

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of a typical shear lap joint on the dynamics of two structures: a beam with a bolted joint in its center and a frame with a fixed shear joint in one of its members.

On the separation of internal and boundary damage in slender bars using longitudinal vibration frequencies and equivalent linearization of damaged bolted joint response

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used structural damping and an equivalent linearization of the bolted lap joint response to separate the combined boundary damage from localized large-scale internal damage in structures with imperfect bolted joints and found that while the proposed method allows for the estimation of internal damage severity once the crack location is known, it gives multiple possible crack locations so that other methods (e.g., mode shapes) are required to obtain a unique crack location.
